The prince supports her, and the reborn princess kills people
Chapter 155 Can You Go Now?
The time when Shen Qingyan and Qingmei appeared happened to be the busiest time of the ghost market, which was also the midnight when the ghost energy was the strongest in the day.
No wonder we only hear the name of the Ghost Market but never see any trace of it on ordinary days. It turns out that not only the time is unusual, but even the entrance is set up underground.
Shen Qingyan and Qingmei found out after asking around for a long time.
The moment they stepped in, they felt a cool breeze blowing behind them as they walked forward, which was creepy.
But now that you’re in, the Ghost Market has its own rules. Once you enter here, you can’t leave empty-handed.
Fortunately, Qingmei always carried a lot of silver with her, just in case Shen Qingyan needed it.
"princess……"
"Shh, call me Master." Shen Qingyan corrected in time.
"Yes, sir." Qingmei whispered, "What should we buy?"
The main reason is that this place looks too gloomy and scary. The sellers hide themselves in the darkness with only a small candle in front of them. The dim light flickers, and everyone can't see the goods in front of them clearly, but they can feel their cold breath.
"Don't rush to buy it yet, let's find the prince first."
I don’t know if there is any news about the Rat generation.
However, this ghost market is indeed very unusual.
What Shen Qingyan had experienced in her previous life was much more terrifying than the ghost market, so she didn't think it was a big deal. Instead, Qingmei kept pulling her sleeve nervously.
The ghost market was so quiet that it was a little scary. It didn't look like anyone was investigating a case, and there was no atmosphere of buying and selling things.
Shen Qingyan couldn't help but start to wonder, is Gu Beihuai really here?
Just as the two men were pretending to look around for the goods, two drunken men came towards them.
In order not to attract attention, Shen Qingyan and Qingmei immediately lowered their heads and made way.
Unexpectedly, the two men came right for them.
They stopped Shen Qingyan and Qingmei on the left and right and asked them in a questioning tone.
"Who are you?"
Shen Qingyan was alert and asked in a hoarse voice.
"Who are you?"
The two men were one tall and one short, wearing the same black shorts, with long swords on their waists. On the hilts of the swords were engraved little devils with green faces and fangs. They were obviously not ordinary people.
The tall man sneered and pointed to the jade pendant around his waist.
"We are the guards patrolling the Ghost Market, specializing in arresting suspicious people."
Shen Qingyan frowned slightly. Didn't they say that the ghost market was not under the jurisdiction of the government? Why would there be guards?
Also, arresting people with suspicious behavior, couldn’t they be referring to them?
Although the short man did not say anything, his pair of green eyes looked up and down at Shen Qingyan and Qingmei, looking vulgar and cunning.
The tall man continued, "You have been acting sneaky since you came in. You don't seem to be here to steal something. Tell me, who are you?"
Qingmei was a little scared, but she still stood in front of Shen Qingyan and said bravely: "What do you mean by taking something from someone's pocket? We are merchants who come here to purchase goods."
"Humph." The tall man snorted coldly, showing disdain. "He doesn't even know the jargon. I guess he's definitely not a serious person. Arrest him!"
Yesterday, people from the royal family and government sneaked into the ghost market, causing them to lose a lot of people and goods, so they became more vigilant and would check thoroughly any strangers they met.
The short man's expression changed. He raised his hand to stop the tall man and said to Shen Qingyan and Qingmei with a smile.
"It's just that he doesn't understand the jargon. I guess he's new here and doesn't know the rules. That's okay."
The tall man was a little dissatisfied, and was about to say something when he saw the short man wink at him and continued.
"There is no such thing as buying or selling in the ghost market. There is only the concept of searching and taking things. There are also many taboos and rules. I'm sure you don't know them. Why don't you come with us? We have someone to teach you these things."
Shen Qingyan became even more alert. Anyone who saw the obscene look in this short man's eyes would not think that he was a good person.
"Thank you for your kindness, but that's alright."
The short man's expression changed slightly, and he was obviously very unhappy with Shen Qingyan's rejection.
"Don't refuse a toast and then drink a forfeit." He looked sinister and put his hand on Shen Qingyan's shoulder. "If you know what's good for you, come with us. Otherwise, you will break a taboo and die without knowing how."
Shen Qingyan tilted her head slightly, her eyes falling on the short man's hand on her shoulder.
The short man followed her gaze, and not only did he not take it, he also squeezed it.
"Looking at your delicate skin and tender flesh, could you be a girl?"
Although Shen Qingyan and Qingmei were dressed in men's clothes, they had no male characteristics if one looked closely, and anyone with a discerning eye could tell.
Shen Qingyan did not answer him, but looked at the hand and said indifferently: "Let go."
The short man sneered and didn't take it seriously at all.
"If I don't let go, what can you do?"
His hand slowly moved down from Shen Qingyan's shoulder, and his eyes became more frivolous and bold.
Shen Qingyan remained calm and suddenly held his arm.
The short man raised his eyebrows and was about to speak when he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his arm.
"what!"
The shrill screams were particularly abrupt in the silent ghost market, and all the sellers hiding in the dark looked over in unison.
The short man had a look of pain on his face, his right arm hung limply, and it was obvious that he had suffered serious injuries.
Shen Qingyan remained calm and said coldly: "Can you get out now?"
"Damn it, you dare to hit me?!" The short man was so angry that he drew out the sword with his intact left arm and stabbed Shen Qingyan fiercely.
The tall man didn't expect Shen Qingyan to be so powerful. He broke the short man's arm as soon as he came up and immediately followed suit.
But the person he attacked was Qingmei, who was powerless.
The tranquility of the ghost market was broken, and several sellers slowly stood up, seeming to be very interested in the situation.
Although they all have a lifeless attitude of "it's up to you to buy or not, I'll sell if I want to", they all have a heart that wants to watch the fun.
Someone said in a hoarse voice: "I haven't seen anyone fighting for a long time. I feel like fighting."
Someone beside him sneered, his tone full of sarcasm, "Mr. Fu, are you sure you can still move your old bones? Don't let your family kick you down."
The man called Mr. Fu was not angry at all. Instead, he said calmly, "Want to take a gamble?"
"Okay, what's the bet?"
"I'll bet on the Jade Sea Glazed Dagger that you, Liu Er, sold."
When Liu Er heard this, he was so shocked that he almost jumped up.
You should know that everything sold by everyone in their ghost market is covered with a black cloth, which can only be opened by the buyer. This process is called "searching the bag".
If the deal is confirmed, call to pick up the item.
Each seller is more than ten feet apart, and the process of searching the bag needs to be covered with black cloth, making it impossible for others to see.
How did Mr. Fu know what he was selling?
"Mr. Fu, you actually don't follow the rules!" Liu Er's first reaction was that Mr. Fu had snooped into his things.
Mr. Fu said calmly, "No, I saw it with the help of my omniscient mirror. It can let you see anything you want to see. If you win the bet, it will be yours."
